CHARLES HENRY SEDGWICK 






































HISTORICAL 


(an (ea) VO hundred and eighty-four years ago, in 1643, General 
K<4 Robert Sedgwick and John Winthrop, Jr., established 
uM, : 
2st, the first furnace and iron works in America at 
aE 
Lynn, Mass. 
(Harper’s Encyclopaedia of United States History) 


For ten generations the Sedgwicks have continued in the 
craft, devising and fashioning from metal and wood those 
machines and mechanical devices which have contributed so 
largely to the wonderful progress of the United States, handing 
down from father to son the skill and experience accumulated 
during more than two and a half centuries of conscientious effort. 


In 1844, Charles Henry Sedgwick, whose likeness from an 
old photograph is reproduced on the opposite page, and who 
was the seventh direct descendant of General Robert Sedgwick, 
brought the business to Poughkeepsie, N. Y., our present location. 


In 1893, Alonzo Sedgwick, son of Charles Henry Sedgwick, 
associated with Justus Ingersoll Wakelee, erected a new plant 
and concentrated their united energies on the manufacture of 
Hand Power Elevators and Dumb Waiters. 


The business was incorporated September |, 1913, under 
the laws of the State of New York, with Justus Ingersoll Wakelee 
as President and General Manager, and Dwight Robert Sedg- 
wick, son of Alonzo Sedgwick, as Treasurer and Factory Manager. 


In 1925, Dwight Robert Sedgwick was elected President 
to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Justus Ingersoll 
Wakelee. At this time, Horace Wright Yarrington became 
Secretary, and Justus Ingersoll Wakelee, Jr., Treasurer.

INTRODUCTION 


‘S ae ATISFACTORY results from the installation of Hand 
Power Elevators and Dumb Waiters depend upon the 
Bis selection of outfits suitable to the conditions and re- 

quirements, and upon proper installation. 





We are, and for nearly thirty-five years have been, specialists 
in Hand Power Dumb Waiters and Elevators; we invite corre- 
spondence, and take personal interest in making recommenda- 
tions which enable our customers to secure the best possible 
results. 


Estimates on outfits installed complete in running order, 
will be submitted on request. 


The name “Sedgwick”’ is registered in the United States 
Patent Office as our trademark, and purchasers of Dumb Waiters 
and Elevators bearing this trademark can depend upon having 
outfits which are strong, durable, easy running and satisfactory. 


The well-known superiority of the ““Sedgwick’’ Elevators 
and Dumb Waiters is due both to the carefully selected, high- 
grade material used exclusively in their manufacture, and to 
improvements—many of them patented—in principle, design, 
workmanship and finish. 


Sedgwick Outfits are products of an engineering organization 
properly equipped to handle the many problems of planning, 
constructing, and installing. Backed by wide experience in the 
field and by substantial resources, Sedgwick Service and the 
Sedgwick Outfits justify the confidence placed in them.

Sedgwick Dumb Waiter Machines are guaranteed for five 
years and will be repaired free of charge during that time if 
returned to the factory at Poughkeepsie, N. Y., express prepaid.

Hardwood guide runs, for both car and counter-weight. 

All ropes. 

We splice dumb waiter hand-ropes or furnish rope coup- 
lings as preferred. 


Special conditions may require special equipment, and 
we gladly furnish prices on steel cars, steel guide runs, etc. 

Illustration shows complete Dumb Waiter Outfit with 
enclosure removed. 

Machine is mounted on platform. 

Counter-weight travels in guide runs inside the hoistway, 
thus saving space, and the expense. of constructing a weight- 
box or pocket. While the weight may be run in a pocket, 
if preferred, the open construction here illustrated is better, 
as all parts are easily accessible. 

Double Face Outfits require a longer machine, extra 
hand-wheel and hand-rope. 

In addition to standard sizes, cars and platforms for 
machines will be made to fit any hoistway. 

Dumb Waiter Outfits of special size are priced at the 
smallest standard size which will cover dimensions required.

DUMB WAITER CARS 


HE Sedgwick Dumb Waiter Cars are made of selected hardwood, seasoned under sheds 
alt in the open air, and kiln dried before working. 

Cars are handsomely finished, the wood being first filled and then surfaced with 
two coats of best varnish. 

Dumb Waiter Cars are carried in stock in sizes, listed on page 6, fitted either with one 
hinged shelf or two solid shelves, in addition to the top and bottom. 

Dumb Waiter Cars fitted with one hinged shelf are, for the No. | size, 30 inches high 
inside; for the Nos. 2, 3 and 4a sizes, 36 inches high inside. Dumb Waiter Cars fitted with 
two solid shelves are regularly 6 inches higher. The No. 5a size car is regularly furnished 48 
inches high inside with one hinged shelf. 

The outside or overall height of Dumb Waiter Cars is about 
6 inches greater than the inside heights given in the above 
paragraph. 

We recommend the fitting of Double Face Cars with solid 
shelves, when possible, as the solid shelves give additional 
strength and rigidity to the Car. 

Dumb Waiter Cars are regularly shipped assembled and 
crated, but will be shipped knocked-down, upon request. 

Door openings of sufficient size to admit the Car into the 
well must always be provided until after the outfit is installed. 
If sufficiently large openings to admit the assembled Car are not 
provided, it is necessary to build Cars of special design, which 
may be assembled inside the well. This makes additional 
expense and heavier Cars. 

Sedgwick Dumb Waiter Cars combine maximum strength 
and minimum weight.

Location of Doors. A. Single face hoistway, as shown 
in the layout and in “‘A”’ above, with all doors located in 
same front, is always advisable. 


B. Double face hoistway (“B”’ above) with openings 
located in opposite fronts. For standard sizes, dimensions 
“E” in above table must be increased by | inch to allow 
for additional hand-rope.

Cleating. The cleating (or grounds) shown in the 
drawing on this page is necessary where hoistway is of 
fireproof material, or is already plastered without pro- 
vision for securing of guide runs. 


In a wood-ceiled hoistway where guide runs may be 
screwed directly to the side walls, cleating is unnecessary 
and dimensions “‘D”’ in above table may be reduced by 
2 inches. 


Door Openings. Door openings should be fully as 
wide as car. Height should be 4 feet with sill located 
30 inches above floor.

AUTOMATIC BRAKE 
DUMB WAITER 
OUTFITS 


HE Sedgwick Automatic Brake Dumb 
Waiter Outfits are a great improvement 
over all automatic lock and other self- 
retaining dumb waiters, and are especially 
designed for purchasers who consider just as 
carefully what they are getting, as what they are 


paying. 





Sedgwick Automatic Brake 
Dumb Waiter Machine 


Automatic Brake Dumb Waiters are suit- 
able for residences and similar service where 
average loads do not exceed twenty-five pounds. 


For heavier work, see pages 12, 13 and 14. 


When the operator ceases pulling hand-rope, 
the automatic brake applies, holding car at any 
point in its travel. Accidents through careless 
handling are prevented by this device. 


The brake does not lock fast, but is applied 
and regulated by the load, holding the car 
securely at any point, but at the same time 
allowing it to be raised and lowered smoothly 
and easily without jumping or jarring. 


Independently supported, the automatic 
brake does not transmit to the machine any end 
thrust, strain, or unnecessary wear. 


Automatic Brake Dumb Waiters are su- 
perior in principle, design, construction, and 
finish, and are unequaled for durability and 
safety.

BAND BRAKE DUMB WAITER OUTFITS 


HE Band Brake Dumb Waiter is specially adapted to carrying light loads, averaging 
twenty-five pounds or less, in high hoistways in factories, stores, etc., where a strong, 
rapid running dumb waiter for hard service is required. 


For heavier work, see pages 12, 13 and 14. 


Pulling down on the brake rope applies the brake 
partially, and controls the speed in lowering; a final pull 
locks the brake and holds the car stationary until the 
operator pulls up on the brake rope. 


Requiring some judgment on the operator’s part, it is 
usually advisable to install the Band Brake Dumb Waiter 
Outfit for the carrying of loads which are of an unbreakable 
nature. 


All shafting is of steel, and all bearings are fitted with 
steel anti-friction rollers, making an easily operated, rapid, 
smooth-running and durable machine. 


They are manufactured in large quantities with special 
tools, insuring greatest accuracy, and are sold at the lowest 
price consistent with the quality of the mechanism.

The illustration of Sedgwick Automatic Brake Dumb 
Waiter erected in plastered hoistway (page 10) shows 
proper installation for lath and plaster construction. 


Horizontal cats, or bridging should be placed between 
vertical studs, on 30-inch centers, to which the guide runs 
are secured by long screws passing through lath and plaster. 

In many cases it is preferred to ceil the hoistway with 
wood as shown on page 7. 

If hoistway is of fireproof material or has been finished 
without the bridging, it may be necessary to put cleating on 
the face of the plaster, to which the guide runs shall be secured. 

This cleating may be horizontal and nailed to studs, or 
vertical, back of the guide runs, if proper fastening can be had. 





Guide runs are always to be secured with screws, never 
nailed. Band Brake Dumb Water Outfit

HE new type “FDCG”’ Sedgwick Geared Automatic Brake 
Dumb Waiter designed for hospitals, hotels, clubs, restau- 
rants, schools, churches, libraries, and other institutional, 

Pelt! Dimer Hoe ow heel commercial, and industrial purposes, represents an immense 

and Cut Gears improvement in vertical transportation equipment. 

“< — The main features of the machine are: 

|. Self-contained machine, a complete unit. 

2. Sedgwick automatic brake, operating whether counter- 
weight be located at right or left of car, is of recognized superi- 
ority, allowing smooth and safe operation, the device auto- 
matically adjusting itself to the load carried. 

3. Anti-friction roller bearings (the proper type of bearing 
for the service) make for ease of operation, quiet running, and 
increased life of the machine. 

4. Machine-cut gears eliminate the possibility of uneven- 
ness in machine performance which is often experienced with 
cast gears. 

By means of these gears we can arrange that each pound 
of pull on the hand-rope will raise from four to ten pounds of 
load, depending on the gears and hand-wheel used. 

5. Full diameter hoist wheel, over which cable 
connecting car and counterweight travels, permits cable 
to drop straight to both car and counterweight without 
the use of intermediate leading sheaves or idlers. 





The great advantage derived from the elimination 
of friction is emphasized by 
(a) Increased ease of operation, 
(b) Doubling life of the car cable. 
Reducing the number of moving parts in the mechanism 
further guarantees long and reliable satisfactory service. 


The full diameter hoist wheel gives a 50 per cent gripping 
surface of wheel on car cable, effecting certain and unfailing 
transmission of the automatic brake action.

Lowest in Ultimate Cost 


GEARED BAND BRAKE DUMB WAITERS 


HE Sedgwick Geared Band Brake Dumb Waiters are designed for heavy service, and 
are especially desirable in commercial establishments, where loads exceeding twenty-five 
pounds are regularly handled. 

These outfits will give good results with occasional or test loads up to two hundred pounds. 

The operator controls the speed of dumb waiter by means of the brake rope. Pulling down 

partially applies brake and tends 
to regulate speed when lowering; 
a final pull locks the brake and 
holds car stationary until the op- 
erator pulls up on the brake rope. 

In the geared band brake ma- 

chines, the hand wheel and the lift 
wheel are on separate shafts, which 
are mounted in substantial iron 
frames, with anti-friction steel 
roller bearings, and the motion of 
the hand wheel is transmitted to 
the lift wheel through a pair of 
carefully designed iron gears. 

By means of these gears we

Machine 


EQUIREMENTS of service in certain buildings, such as banks, stores, factories, hotels 
and other classes of structures, frequently call for dumb waiters designed to carry loads 
greater than those for which the Sedgwick Geared Dumb Waiters (pages 12 and 13) 

are suitable. 

The Compound Geared Dumb Waiters are used with great satisfaction for capacity loads 
of three and four hundred pounds. 

Provided with two sets of machine-cut spur gears, a sufficient gear reduction is secured in 
the machine so as to permit the operator to raise heavy loads with reasonable effort. 

The heavy iron frames insure permanent alignment of shafting and thereby minimize 
friction, which is practically eliminated by anti-friction roller bearings in every bearing and 
the use of full diameter hoist wheels. 

Safety in use of this dumb waiter is assured by equipping machine with two hoist wheels 
and using two wire hoist ropes to suspend car and counterweight. These cables are inde- 
pendently attached and either alone is of sufficient strength to carry safely car and counter- 
weight. 

Besides the heavy duty machine, heavy materials are used throughout the building of 
the entire outfit so as to insure long and dependable service in spite of severe use. 

Sedgwick Compound Geared Dumb Waiters are equipped with automatic brake or with 
band brake as required.

Sedgwick High Speed Dumb Waiter 


HIS is a small, rapid running dumb waiter de- 
signed for light loads, such as messages, newspaper 


copy, orders, bills, etc. It is suitable for any 


height. 


Wire guides for car and weight, together with our 
special oilless bearings, make this outfit very light 


running and practically noiseless. 


Outfit consists of car, two stand sheaves with rubber 
bumpers and platforms, wire guides, turnbuckles, fit- 


tings, rope and weight. 


The entire outfit can be erected in an hour, requir- 


ing eight wood screws, four to secure each platform. 


Car regularly furnished, 10’’ wide, 6’ deep, 17” 


high, outside dimensions (carried in stock). 
Space required 20’’x10’’. 


Special sizes will be furnished when desired at 


increased prices. 


As showing the wide variety of uses to which this 
outfit may be put, it may be stated that while many of 
them run from one floor to the next only, there are 
many which run more than 100 feet in two to three 


seconds. 


Sometimes two cars are used, one balancing the 
other. This arrangement is advantageous when service 
is between two points only, as there is always a car at 


each terminal ready for use.

ICELESS REFRIGERATORS 


HE term “Iceless Refrigerator’ is used to describe an arrangement for the preservation 

of food without the expense, trouble and annoyance of ice. 

In most homes the cellar is sufficiently cool to preserve the supplies of food which are 
carried over from one meal to another, and these cool cellars were the only means which our 
parents had in many cases for the preservation of such food. 

Once in a while someone was fortunate enough to have a very cool well or spring of pure 
water, and the food would be placed in a vessel and lowered into this well. 

Nowadays, however, the effort required to run up and down stairs to carry the food down 
after meals and to bring it up again when wanted is correctly assumed to involve a greater ex- 
penditure of effort than the cost of ice justifies, and therefore many people resort to the use of 
the ordinary refrigerator. 

The use of the Iceless Refrigerator, or in other words, a Sedgwick Automatic Brake Dumb 
Waiter, (page 10) as a cabinet in which the food may be placed and then lowered either into the 
cool cellar or, if the cellar be not sufficiently cool, into a prepared well or pit beneath the cellar 
floor is becoming more and more general because a good dumb waiter costs but little more than 
a good refrigerator and the saving over the use of ice is likely to pay for the dumb waiter ina 
season or two. 

The only difference between one of the regular Sedgwick Dumb Waiter Outfits and such an 
outfit designed to be used as an Iceless Refrigerator is the furnishing of a heavier counter- 
weight which shall weigh enough to balance both the car and the average weight of food and 
dishes to be kept in it. 

In ordering, therefore, it is well to state what the estimated weight of the usual load will 
be, so that a sufficient amount of extra counterweight may be furnished with the outfit, for 
which there is a small additional charge. 

The special advantage of the Sedgwick Automatic Brake Dumb Waiter Outfit (page 10) for 
this purpose is found in the fact that the Sedgwick Machine is automatic and effective in both 
directions. 

If the loaded car should be heavier than the counterweight, the automatic brake prevents 
the car running down. 

If, on the other hand, so much of the load be removed that the car is lighter than the coun- 
terweight, again the automatic brake prevents the car running up. 

So whatever the conditions, no accident can happen. 


BOOK LIFTS 


ANKS, insurance companies, libraries and commercial establishments have found the 

Sedgwick Dumb Waiters valuable labor-saving equipment when used as book lifts. 

The regular construction is used where enclosures are necessary, the brass and steel 
tube dumb waiters being selected where open construction is preferred. 

Sedgwick Type “DCG” Geared Automatic Brake Dumb Waiters (page 12) are generally 
best adapted to Book Lift requirements, though consultation is advised in order to secure 
equipment which will be most satisfactory. 

Sedgwick Book Lifts are built in all capacities and types suitable for every requirement. 

Specify load to be carried, normal and maximum, and size of car required.

FUEL AND LOG LIFTS 


N ALL ages, the fireplace has been the 
symbol of home. The hearthstone 
has been the center of the home life; 

the hearth fire has been the symbol of 
the family spirit. 


Most people appreciate that the open 
fireplace is one of home’s most inviting 
features; and rare indeed is the home- 
builder who does not insist upon at least 
one open fire as the altar of his household 
gods, the center of his family life. 








Despite this traditional longing of man 
for a fireside of his own—and despite the 
readiness of architects to gratify that 
longing—it is a fact that most fireplaces 
lie cold and dead, lacking that which is 
their very soul and their only justifica- 
tion—the fire on the hearth. 


The explanation of this anomaly is 
simple. It is found in the inconvenience 
and untidiness of supplying the fuel and 
removing the ashes—two very necessary 
operations which nevertheless offend the 
sensibilities alike of master and mistress. 


The Sedgwick Fuel Lift solves the 
problem and fills a long felt want. 


Sedgwick Log Lifts are larger and 
heavier outfits designed to carry larger 
sizes of firewood.

FREIGHT ELEVATORS 


N EDGWICK Hand Power Elevators are supe- 
a rior in principle, design, construction and 

—— finish, and have every improvement sug- 
gested and approved by long experience. 





All material is of best quality and the 
highest standard of machine work and fitting 
is maintained. 


The heavy iron frame, with strong steel 
braces, prevents the bearings getting out of line 
and keeps gears properly in mesh. All shafting 
is of steel, the gears are of ample size and 
strength, and all bearings are fitted with steel 
anti-friction rollers. 


=e or With our improved band brake and ‘‘Lock- 
se = === ing Device, the machine is under perfect 
=== control (by means of a brake rope) from all floors 
and from the car. A slight pull on brake rope 
partially applies the brake and controls speed 
of car in lowering. A final pull locks the brake and the outfit cannot move or be moved until 
the operator releases the brake by pulling up on the brake rope. ‘The brake band is lined with 
vulcanized fibre and is practically indestructible. 


The two hoist wheels, as shown in cut, allow the use of separate hoist cables, thus dividing 
the load, and one acting as a safety for the other. ‘This is the safest arrangement known. 


With the larger sizes are furnished two lift wheels as shown in cut, or scored iron drum, 
as may be best suited to the work to be performed. 


This elevator complete is in use in many stores and factories for handling freight, also in 
private houses and hotels for trunk lifts. 


So far as we know every Sedgwick Hand Power Freight Elevator ever built is still giving 
satisfactory service, except those destroyed by fire. 


Estimates on any of these outfits installed complete, ready for use, will be furnished upon 
application. 


TRUNK LIFTS 


A FINE DWELLING is not complete without a Sedgwick Trunk Lift. 


These outfits are easy running freight type elevators (see page 21), usually preferred 
with platform slatted on sides and back (see page 23). They should be made about four 
feet square to be useful for carrying furniture from one floor to another when necessary. 


However Trunk Lifts are furnished in all standard sizes listed on the following page and 
in special sizes to suit conditions. 


Sedgwick Trunk Lifts prevent baggage, furniture, etc., from marring walls and woodwork 
of residences when being taken up and down stairs and usually allow one person in place of 
two to transfer such material.

WALL CLIMBER ELEVATORS 


HE Wall Climber Elevator differs from any other elevator chiefly in that guide runs for car 
and counterweight are at one side only and are frequently desirable where door open- 
ings must be located at adjacent sides of the enclosure; and in locations where there is to 

be no enclosure and where posts and guide runs at more than one side would be objectionable 


or impossible. 
This arrangement may sometimes be substituted 


for the corner post car as shown at the lower part of 
page 23. 

The regular side post freight car shown on page 
21, or an enclosed car as shown on page 26, or the 
special car shown on this page may be used, whichever 
is best suited to the work. 

We have specialized for over thirty years in the 
design, manufacture and installation of hand power 
elevators and dumb waiters for all purposes. This 
specialized experience is at your command. 


GRAVITY DROPS 


HIS is a term adopted to distinguish outfits 
designed for use where the loads are uniformly 
down. 


The Sedgwick Machine Works has installed 
such outfits for the National Biscuit Co., American 
Sugar Refining Co., Kirkman Soap Co., Dover Fire 
Brick Co., and many other firms. These outfits, 
being designed to suit the general scheme for handling 
their materials, give more satisfactory results than 
would anything else. 


Sedgwick Gravity Drops are particularly well 
suited to installation in manufacturing establish- 
ments where raw materials are first raised on electric 
elevators to upper floors of buildings and then are 
lowered from floor to floor in course of production. 
This lowering may be more efficiently and econom- 
ically handled by Sedgwick Gravity Drops in most 
instances. There is practically no maintenance 
cost, and the Gravity Drops are usually operated by 
the person handling the load at upper floor, thus 
eliminating the need for a special elevator operator.

The Gripping Sheaves ‘“‘C” and ‘“D” clear the hand rope when not in use. By 
means of the control rope they are forced against the hand rope, when required to lift the load. 


When car reaches the desired level, release the control rope and apply the brake. 
In lowering, power is not used, simply release the brake and control the speed. 


Upon installing the Grip Hoist some prefer to reduce the counterweight sufficiently that 
even the empty car will descend upon the release of the brake. 


The Universal is run by two belts (one straight, the other crossed). 


The Differential has cut gears of highest quality, insuring smooth running and is operated 
by a single belt. 


Both are carried in stock in two sizes: No. | will lift 2000 pounds test load on a good 


elevator; No. 2, 3000 pounds. 
These Grip Hoists may be located on floor, ceiling, or joist work.

INVALID ELEVATORS 


EDGWICK Invalid Elevators are 
designed for the use of persons 
who cannot or should not climb 

stairs. 


For such service they have proved 
to be the most satisfactory equipment 
obtainable because of their safety, ease 
of operation, and simplicity. 


The illustration was suggested by a 
letter from a customer who said that 
his five-year-old boy operated the 
elevator without undue exertion and 
had a lot of fun being the ‘‘Elevator 
Man.” 


All Sedgwick outfits are good, but 
none have inspired our enthusiasm to: 
the extent that these Invalid Elevators. 
have, because there is no other outfit 
in the market like them, and because 
of the many letters of appreciation and 
gratitude we have received from those 
who have them.

eT 


Sedgwick Hatchway Hoist 


If architects and hospital authorities requir- 
ing hand power outfits will consult us, we can 
furnish outfits which, because they are designed especially for the purpose, may be 
expected to give satisfactory service. 


The Sedgwick Hand Power Hospital Elevators are designed with special reference to the 
practically uniform conditions under which hospital elevators are to be operated. 


The primary essential of a satisfactory hand power elevator being dependability and relia- 
bility, it is necessary that the outfit shall be strong, to guard against accident; simple, to pre- 
vent getting out of order; and fitted with a powerful and dependable brake so that the outfit 
is always under perfect control of the operator. 


The next and equally important essential is ease of operation and reasonable speed. 


All these essentials depend upon proper design, proper material and workmanship and 
correct installation, which are characteristic of Sedgwick Hand Power Elevator outfits for 
hospital service. 


Special circular on this outfit will be sent on request.

ample, transportation to the repair 
department, or a paint shop, or for dead

The Sedgwick Automobile Elevator, 
like all the Sedgwick outfits, is strong, 
simple, and dependable. 


The Sedgwick Grip Hoists illustrated 
on page 25 are frequently used in con- 
nection with these outfits, thus permit- 
ting the use of power for lifting the 
loads at comparatively little expense. 


Lumber for posts, overhead timbers, 
and bolts, screws, and nails required in 
erecting are not included in the outfit 
itself, but will be included where we 
furnish estimates for installation.

SIDEWALK ELEVATORS 


HE Sedgwick Sidewalk Elevators have been 
standard for many years and are superior in 
design, workmanship, and materials. 


Sidewalk Elevators serve a variety of purposes, 
perhaps one of the most common being for removal 
of ashes. For this use Sedgwick Sidewalk Ele- 
vators are doubly serviceable in schools, banks, 
and many other buildings, as they may be used 
also for carrying all kinds of freight, supplies, fur- 
niture, trunks, etc. 


These outfits are regularly built as shown in 
illustration at left in three capacities, 1500 pounds, 
2000 pounds, and 2500 pounds, but may be had 
from 500 pounds to 10,000 pounds capacity. 


DUG owss 


The Sedgwick Sidewalk Elevator illustrated 
at left is regularly built in two capacities, 500 
pounds and 1000 pounds, but may be had in any 
capacity desired. 


This outfit combines every advantage found 
in any sidewalk elevator with some advantages 
found in no other. 





The crank handle is thrown out of gear when 
lowering and the outfit is easily controlled by the 
powerful self-locking band brake. 


COMPLETE OUTEIT INCLUDES 


Machine, trusses, drum shaft and drums, bearings, 
and main gear, two T uprights, platform, chains, 





and foot plates.

SIDEWALK ELEVATORS 


HE outfit illustrates a method of bringing 
the gearing forward as is required in 
some cases. 


All Sedgwick Sidewalk Elevators are 
strong, durable, and easy running, and are 
equipped with the Sedgwick Fibre-Lined, 
Self-Locking Band Brake. The crank shaft 
is thrown out of gear, so that it does not 
revolve when lowering and a slight pressure 
on the brake lever controls the speed. A 
final movement of the lever locks the brake 
and holds the platform stationary at any 
point desired.

ASH CRANE 


HE Sedgwick Ash Crane (shown at right) 

makes a very simple and convenient 

device with which to hoist cans of ashes. 
When not in use the Crane is dropped below 
sidewalk level as indicated in dotted lines. 
When raised to position shown in cut the 
Crane may be swung to any position required, 
thus permitting the cans to be raised without 
coming in contact with surrounding walls or 
the hatch combing, and when the cans are 
above the sidewalk level the Crane may be 
swung around so as to deposit them upon the 
sidewalk. 














We furnish crane, brackets for supporting 
same, self-retaining block and fall, also bail 
for can.
